Gower Middle School teachers are dedicated to helping the students excel. They teach the students in a positive, caring environment. The principal is very involved in all school activities. She is always available to discuss your questions/concerns. The parents are also involved with providing opportunities for the students. There are many fun, educational events from kindergarten to 8th grade. This school prepares the students for the challenges they will face in high school. The students are taught how to be organized and how to communicate with the teachers. The band program offers many levels from beginner band to concert band to 2 jazz bands. My children have a fantastic education foundation because they attended the Gower Schools.

No. I have heard of teachers setting up FB pages on areas of study so students can use technology as a learning tool. All posts are public and private messages are disabled. I won't even friend former students. I do it as a rule-no hurt feelings.

No! As an educator, I don't want to be held responsible for what students are doing outside of the classroom.

Absolutely not. Most schools offer the homework question site through the school system. They do not need to be "friends" with their students through social networking sites.
